Default What to do with siberian squll?

"J. Clarke" expounded:


Do I dig up the individual plants and transplant them bare-root or do
I take a posthole digger and try to move a whole clump of them to a
different posthole in a single big plug? Note that they appear to be
very small plants but I don't know what's underground. Seriously, I'm
very new at this gardening thing.


Keep the rootball together. Dig a hole first, then take a good
shovelfull all around the clump and try to replant it in the new hole
with as little root disturbance as possible. If you get enough earth
around them they won't even blink! They're tough little buggers,
they'll be fine.
